Nelson high school was filled with an amazing faculty and had people in place to allow their students to excel in all areas. As a student, I was able to learn how to work hard enough in order to be successful, ask for help when needed because it was so readily available and how manage my time as a student who loved to be involved in extra curriculars. As an athlete, I was given every opportunity to add to my athleticism,I could compete in my predominant sport of hockey outside of school while also competing in sports like badminton, field hockey, track and field and hockey in school. This allowed me to see the importance of all athletics and surrounded me with like minded individuals in a culture that I could contribute to succeed in. Many people I know met to Nelson with, staff and friends I still keep in contact with to this day and have continued to be a part of my “team” throughout my toughest and greatest moments! Every opportunity is available for you at Nelson that can give you the opportunity to be who you want to be and the people are there to support you.
